Hi! We're remodeling our kitchen and need your advice! We decided to
put Kraftmaid cabinets (price/quality combination seems decent) and
got a quote from HomeDepot. I wonder if there any online dealers that
can beat Home Depot's price or it's not even worth looking? I
contacted one of online stores (buycabinets.com), they said that
although cabients will probably end up being cheaper, freight (to St.
Louis) will be higher, so total will be more than HD. Any ideas if
it's worth shopping around online and if so, where to look? Thanks!!!

mistake 1
quality they are not

mistake 2
quote from HD
I wonder if there any online dealers that

probably not
unless you take that quote to lowes and get 10% OFF
or it's not even worth looking? I

| Well, Lowe's sells them too... but you'll get better cabinets, and
better
| service, buying Schrock or Merillat,
THESE ARE ALSO CRAPLY MADE.
or, if your budget will take the strain,
| Bertch.
BERTCH HIGH END CABINETS ARE PARTICLE BOARD
|
| KraftMaid's customer service leaves a lot to be desired -- as does
their
| quality control. On a recent job, I was installing (among other
things) a
| KraftMaid corner wall cabinet with bi-fold doors on each side of the
corner --
| took them *five* tries to get me two good pairs. One arrived with the
| hinge-mount holes misaligned, so the door wouldn't hang straight.
Another
| arrived an inch and a half too narrow. Yet another arrived broken --
in an
| undamaged package. And one time they sent two right-hand doors instead
of a
| right and a left. The order was shorted several pairs of hinges; it
took three
| phone calls to resolve that.
You can probably guess one brand I won't be
| buying, or recommending, again...
MERRILATT, KRAFTMAID, SCHROCK, BERTCH,
I LIKE AN ALL WOOD BOX
4 SIDED DOVETAIL DRAWER BOXES
6 WAY ADJUSTABLE HINGES
FRAMELESS STYLE CABINETS (can't buy those from the large mfgs.)
HAND RUBBED clear finish
